In pairs, decide who will be the attacker, and who will be the defender. The defender gets a tackle bag and stands 4-5m from the cones. The attacker stands a further 4-5m from the defender. On cue, the attacker runs at the defender, hits the tackle bag and pushs the defender back over the line. Swap after each turn.
Make sure you have:
-Tackle Bags
-Cones
-Bibs (Optional)
Be aware of the strength of each person and try to match them with someone of a similar build.
